A "President" class P7c leads a passenger train past John's camera on the south side, the hogger about to acknowledge him. #5309 was "President Polk", and by this date must have been relegated to a less glamourous train handling mail-express. The passenger platform. B&O's Englewood stop, was/is located between BOCT mains 1 and 2 at 63rd St., and still exists today (thanks BOCT engineer for the info).

In its heyday, B&O ran passenger service from Jersey City to Washington, Chicago and St. Louis. But it couldn't compete with the Pennsylvania or New York Central. By the time Amtrak was formed, its trains were a shadow of their former selves.
